Radon testing
A continuous monitor on the lowest level that could be used regularly, read every hour for at least 48 hours. The written result comes the day we collect it.
4.9 rating, over 4,000 reviews NRSB-certified technicians Serving Prince George's County
A radon test in Suitland is $185, or $175 when it is added to a home inspection. That is the whole price: both visits, the monitor for the full 48 hours, and the written report with every hourly reading in it. The standard fee covers one Suitland house, apartment, townhouse or condominium residence. Supply the unit number and identify any additional dwelling that needs separate attention.
Day 1
Drop-off
A technician places it on the lowest level that could be used regularly, following EPA placement limits and the intended use of the space, inside a two-hour arrival window. With a home inspection, placement happens during the inspection visit.
48 hours
The house stays closed
For a short-term real-estate test, EPA guidance calls for closed-building conditions for at least 12 hours before the test and throughout the measurement. Windows stay closed, exterior doors open only for normal entry and exit, and the monitor logs hourly readings that help document the test conditions during the minimum 48-hour measurement.
Day 3
Pick-up and report
A technician picks the monitor up in another two-hour window and pulls the full record on the spot. The written report reaches you the same day.
NRSB-certified technicians. Our own team, certified by the National Radon Safety Board, not a subcontractor.
EPA testing guidance. Placement, closed-house conditions and the 48-hour minimum follow it, and your average is read against the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L.
Continuous monitors. Airthings Corentium Pro instruments, logging every hour for the whole test.
Appointment times are requests until our team confirms them. What the number means, how to prepare the property and the eight questions everyone asks are on the radon testing page; this page is about Suitland.
EPA lists Prince George's County in Zone 2. This county-scale category describes predicted potential, not the concentration inside a Suitland residence. EPA recommends testing homes in all zones. Prepare the lowest level that could be used regularly and give the technician access to the real dwelling layout. Historical development, neighborhood names and nearby readings cannot replace that measurement.
A Prince George's County plan traces Suitland's development after the Civil War and records a post office by 1878 along with stores, blacksmith shops, a hotel and a Methodist church. Today's appointment still turns on the individual residence. In Suitland Park, confirm the street and dwelling number. In Silver Hill, repeat the building letter, stairwell and apartment door where those details apply. In Suitland Manor, coordinate management approval, resident notice and retrieval access before placement. Identify the lowest space that could be used regularly after a move or renovation, including a future office, bedroom or recreation room. For occupied properties, tell residents that the monitor must remain stationary. For a vacant unit, maintain normal systems and keep showings, make-ready work and deliveries away from the measurement interval. When a leasing office, owner and resident divide responsibilities, record who grants permission, who opens the unit and who receives the report. Store the result with the exact Suitland unit record.

01
The County's account gives the community a long civic story. The appointment should still list the present street, building and dwelling number.
02
Record building, apartment and entrance details so the final report can be matched to one premises without ambiguity.
03
Separate permission, key custody and test-condition duties when different people control them, then confirm both appointment times.
Where we test in Suitland, and what to tell us
Suitland Park
Confirm which residence is being tested and who can open its lowest potentially regular-use space. Park proximity is simply a service-area reference, not evidence about the indoor air. The County's historical account of a post office, blacksmith shops, hotel and Methodist church supplies civic background; those old trades cannot date this residence.
Silver Hill
For an attached or multifamily address, repeat the unit designation on every instruction. Shared corridors and utility rooms do not automatically belong to the booked dwelling. Where a campus-style complex uses lettered buildings, include that letter, the stairwell and the apartment door in the work order.
Suitland Manor
Arrange management approval, resident notice and retrieval access before placement. Avoid maintenance or turnover activity that could disturb equipment or change normal ventilation. Log vacancy inspection dates and make-ready milestones so the monitoring interval does not collide with unit rehabilitation.
We do not install radon systems, so we have nothing to gain from your number. If the result is at or above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L, you choose who fixes it. Once the system is in, we can test again and tell you what it reads.
Maryland's residential disclosure framework includes radon among the hazardous or regulated materials covered by an owner's actual knowledge for certain single-family residential property of four or fewer units. The statute has enumerated exemptions and does not itself require a radon test. County and municipal requirements may differ, so check the rules for the property's location and type before relying on an existing result.
Md. Real Property section 10-702. Current as of September 2026. General information, not legal advice.
No. The County narrative describes the development of the wider community. Verify an individual property's records separately and let the technician assess the present layout for monitor placement.
Provide the exact unit, written access arrangements if required, a resident contact and permission for placement and pickup. Schedule unit work so the equipment and required conditions are protected.
No. Each result documents the residence where its monitor operated. Another apartment has separate boundaries, access and indoor conditions and requires its own measurement.
Assign one keyholder, maintain normal building systems, limit unnecessary visits and tell showing agents not to alter windows, exterior doors or the monitor. Report any interruption to the technician.
